My daily foundation

I love Revlon Colourstay for Normal/Dry skin.

I love the shade selection as I can always find my perfect shade no matter what time of year it is which always has an effect on what shade I need to get.

I use it with my QVS Egg shaped blender and it applies beauitfully.

It isnt as lightweight as it claims to be but with full coverage foundations I dont expect it to feel like Im not wearing anything. And it is full coverage and lasts the entire day so I dont have to touch up.

I never set this with powder as my face is dry enough as it is. I don't use a primer(I "prime" with moisturizer).

I would recommend this

Tips: Another foundation that is comparable to revlon colourstay but in my opinion even better is Australis Stayput foundation,the only downside is the limited shade selection which is the ONLY reason I dont use it all the time

MY PET HATE!

Excuse the capitals! I hate hate hate this foundation with a passion I wish I could snatch it away from the shelves. Everyone swears by this but my experience was completely different. Revlon colour stay is deceiving your first experience is very very good..you will notice excellent coverage and ok shades to pick from. So you will be cruising along thinking woahh my skins look so clear...then BOOM before you know it you have dry crusty skin everywhere. I am a beauty therapist so I always use good skincare and take time in my regime to maintain my skins health. I suffer from dry skin so I bought the dry foundation...oh dear oh dear this worsens it. I suspect it's something to do with the staying power of the foundation...as it is so difficult to remove. Another pet hate is when you ladies wear it to a facial...nightmare. It just has such a cakey consistency and clings to the skin..it clings to every dry imperfection and draws more attention to the fact you are wearing foundation. It is the biggest no no for foundation in my eyes! I cringe when I walk past the Revlon counter. Not the best option for foundation I am afraid. Ok rant over...but if I could give it zero kisses it would have zero kisses just for the negative impact it had on my skin.

Tips: Never buy it :) Kidding....Facial wipes will not remove this you will probably need to do three facial cleanses...and you will still have it hanging around in your hair line and nose crevices etc...MOISTURISE MOUSTURISE!

Ditto.. I had the exact same experience with this one. So many people love colorstay. But it was a nightmare for me. I had a hell of a time getting my skin right after using this only for a week! Wonder whats in it they our skin didnt like?

Brought this instead of the oily formula

accidentally. I accidentally purchased this variation rather than the oily/combi skin formula online. Although this isn't the variation I wanted it still does work fine with my skin. I wouldn't say I really have oily skin, but it tends to when it feels like it, and the oily/combi formula provides me with better coverage.

I find this formula is a little more runnier and therefore doesn't have the same coverage. Never the less this still works fine if I want a lighter coverage.

Tips: Make sure you're buying the right formula haha. And the bottles with the pumps are easier and cleaner to use.

Longlasting, doesn't oxidise or crease

I have recently repurchased this foundation after a few years break, and its better than how I remember. It has really good coverage, it lasts all day, and doesn't turn orange on me either. I don't have any problems with it creasing, it really smoothes out my skin, and isn't drying for me.

Tips: I use it with my beauty blender (original)

Amazing.

I recently made changes in my skincare routine which allowed me to be able to wear foundation.

For me, this is THE perfect foundation. The colour (no. 9 cool beige), suits my skin perfectly.

The formula is slightly sheer so you will need to build it up to get more coverage. I looooove that the finish is dewy without looking greasy and it doesn't streak or cake on my skin whatsoever.

Most importantly it doesn't dry my skin out and it lasts all day when I use a primer and light setting powder.

Revlon Colour Stay Foundation - Normal/Dry Skin

I love this foundation for night wear. I find it a little to heavy for day use as I don't like full coverage during the day. It lasts all day and doesn't move which is great. Beautiful product. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Tips: A little goes a long way.

Doesn't "stay" as long as you would like

This make up looks great when you first apply it, however I've always found that it doesn't hold up during the day and your skin can tend to look a bit oily. I also found that it tended to rub off fairly easily (my phone was covered in it!). It gives good coverage initially but needs touching up too often during the day to be something I would buy again.

Tips: Put on a good moisturiser first!

Recommend!

I love this foundation!Iit is very full coverage so i wouldn't recommend for everyday use. Easily covers redness and breakouts with out the need for a concealer. Is long wearing and lasts all night.

Hard to wash off!

This foundation provides good coverage without feeling particularly heavy on my skin. Manages to stay on for the day. I find when putting powder on top it clumps and looks terrible. Also it is particularly hard to wash off and leaves my skin feeling like chalk.

Not my thing

I hated this foundation, it felt heavy on my skin, smudged off whenever I touched my face and left me feeling greasy and oily!
